Description
This is a fun and thought-provoking lesson designed to engage students with poetry and the creative process. A detailed lesson plan, resource materials, and a PDF that lists the Common Core State Standards met by the lesson for grades 2 through 8 are included. Students learn about the poetic device "personification" while producing original poems that are enriched by a visual arts project that relates to their written words. The completed artworks provide windows through which everyday things can be perceived in new ways. An abbreviated version of this lesson can also be found on the author's website PoARTetry for People (www.poetart.org) under the blog tab.
